Instructions:
- Prepare the Mozzarella Sticks:

- Dip the floured stick into the beaten eggs, covering it completely.
- Roll the egg-coated stick in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Repeat for Extra Crispiness:
- For an extra crispy coating, repeat the process by dipping the breadcrumb-coated stick back into the beaten eggs and then into the breadcrumbs again.
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (199°C).
- Air Fry to Perfection:
- Lightly spray the mozzarella sticks with cooking spray.
